Improved Special Edition: We heard your call! As a number of our customers requested improvement in handling, all plates will include a hole in the handle for more flexibility. You can now hook up or hang the plate, attach a jute rope, etc. You will no longer need to improvise with plates or lids to cook your favorite stuffed dishes. Prepare perfect rolls each and every time with our purpose-built design. 100% handmade and unglazed, raw and natural like our other terracotta products. A healthier alternative to mass produced cookware. Commonly used chemical additives to glaze, shine, and to help clay products to be worked in molding techniques are NOT used. Heavy enough to deliver optimal pressure firmly, cooking each roll evenly without crushing or flattening. Can also be used to secure or to apply consistent pressure in modern cooking, such as with paninis or grilled cheese on a pan, or keeping bacon strips straight on a BBQ!
